To reduce the risk of injury, never use a
single dado blade for normal saw thru-
cutting. Never use chippers without both outside cutters.
Read and follow all Operation/Safety Instructions included
with the dado set.
NOTE: The arbor nut must be fully engaged on the shaft threads. If
the stacked width is more than 5/16”, do not use the table saw’s
outer washer and nut. Instead use the accessory nut with integral
washer (Fig. 52). With this saw, do not exceed a stacked dado
width greater than 1/2”.
7.Lower the blades below the table top and insert the Skil Dado
Table Insert (2610011336) (Fig. 53). Raise the cutters to the
desired depth of cut (above the insert). Check that the tool is
not plugged into a power source; then carefully rotate the
cutters by hand to make sure all components are tightly held
and no interferences exist.
8.Plug saw into power source. Using scrap wood, make practice
dado cuts and adjust height accordingly.
To reduce the risk of injury, never pass your
hands over the cutting dado blades. Dado
cuts are non-thru (blind) cuts. Many times the cutters cannot be
seen during cutting. See page 66 for instructions on Non Thru-
sawing.
To reduce the risk of injury, never make
freehand cuts. The work piece must be held
against the saw's fence or miter gauge as it is being fed.
Whenever possible, use push sticks and push blocks for cutting
(see page 64). Always use feather boards, attached to the table
or fence, when rip cutting (See page 66). When cross cutting,
firmly hold work piece against the miter gauge
(see page 60).
NOTE: Because dado cuts are non-thru cuts, the miter gauge
can be used with the fence locked in place. This is helpful when
making repeat dado cross-cuts from the ends of more than one
work piece. Each piece is held against the miter gauge and its
end slides along the fence at a preset distance.
Depending on the final depth of cut and/or the density of the
material, it may be required to make multiple cuts starting with
small depths of 1/4” to 1/2” and progressing to final depth. When
performing extensive repetitive dado cutting, periodically check
the work pieces to see that the depth of cut is maintained.
RETURNING SAW TO NORMAL THRU-CUTTING
After completing your Dado cutting, be sure to return the inner
and outer washers to the original positions (see page 34 for
details). It is important that the original equipment washers are in
the proper positions so that the saw blade always aligns with the
permanently installed riving knife.
ADJUSTABLE OR WOBBLE DADO SETS
To reduce the risk of injury, do not use
adjustable or “wobble” dado sets on this
saw. Adjustable dado sets can be easily set to positions that
may interfere with working components of this saw.
